Verónica needs a freezer and scales to reopen a fish stall
A fish stall in Mar del Plata needs help replacing a freezer and scales after a break-in.
🇦🇷 7605, Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina785 views
For four years I have run a fish stall in Mar del Plata. In June, a break-in took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 1 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 12 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
Once I'm back on my feet I plan to hire back the people I had to let go.
Where the $1,200 goes:
• Replacing a freezer and scales: $740
• Initial stock: the first catch: $175
• Shop repairs and licensing: $125
• Working capital for the first month: $160
Glad we found this place.
